On
October 6, 2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act
was signed into law. That legislation included an extension
of the IRA Charitable Rollover provision that was originally
passed as a part of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, and
which had previously expired on December 31, 2007. The IRA
Charitable Rollover has been extended through December 31,
2009.
The following
resources are provided to help you understand the IRA Charitable
Rollover. The Partnership for Philanthropic Planning will add additional resources as they become
available.
